Students as libraries

Dear C3ers,

What do you think? Via Stephen Downes:

An entire library, 30,000 books of a million characters each, to be worn on keychains, necklaces, bracelets, etc." Think about it. "5 books in 2 megabytes. 30,000 books in 12 gigabytes. That's all the words in the books of an average US Public Library. 2008 will see 12 gigabyte USB flash drives for under $100."

Students as libraries. Another important change that confirms the learning space has changed fundamentally. Can C3 help the ELP respond? Even lead?

I think it also speaks to the idea that change is not an option. Will we swim or sink?

Best,

Owen
